Atheists, what are your thoughts on us Agnostics?

RE: Atheists, what are your thoughts on us Agnostics?
I don't have much use for the term agnostic. It's been used by atheists to be able to identify themselves without having old ladies faint, but also for feeling superior to avowed atheists because you're supposedly having more nuanced views. The definition often used here is that gnostic/agnostic is completely independent from theist/atheist and merely states how firmly you believe something.

Science can't disprove unicorns so let's remain agnostic. Sure, good job being all nuanced, but what does that statement still mean? Who but a Taliban is not agnostic then?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
